Solve for X.

-8(1 - 4x) = -104

Please show work

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Just plug a x value in I chose -3

-8(1-4(-3)) = -104

-8(1+12) = -104

-8(13) = -104

Done easy.

area of part 1:

a1=base*height/2=(8+2)*(8-2-2-1)/2=10*3/2=15 ft^2

area of part 2:

a2=length*width=(8+2)*1=10 ft2

area of part 3:

a3=length*width=8*2=16 ft2

total shaded area : a1+a2+a3=41 ft2

total area of the reactangle : a=16*8=128 ft2

total area of the nonshaded region : 128-41=87 ft2
